TRANSITION AREA NOTES
__________________________
The race transition area is organized based on your assigned race number. Each bike rack ROW is also marked with a sign to help you find your row as you complete your swim-to-bike and bike-to-run transitions.
850 Meter Sprint | 1500 Meter Olympic
Both the sprint and olympic swims are point-to-point in the Ohio River with the sprint course being so fast with the downstream that you're set up for a swim PR. See the swim map for distinguishing buoys to follow and be sure to listen to race staff instructions at the swim start should there be any changes to course design on race morning.
The swim will be conducted in a time-trial fashion. Race numbers are assigned by estimated swim time. Return to Racing Guidelines will further detail the gap between each racer start. We will ask everyone to social distance while lined up to start. Course buoys are placed to help racers to stay on course. To assist you in determining your swim time, follow this pace chart provided by US Masters Swimming.
There will be no moving up in swim order on race day. The race order is pre-assigned and you may move back in the order if you so choose.
USA Triathlon Wet Suit Rules:
An official temperature will be announced race morning.
Article 4.4: Each age group participant shall be permitted to wear a wet suit without penalty in any event sanctioned by USA Triathlon up to and including a water temperature of 78 degrees Fahrenheit.
